Q: Hi,
I have too many small positions with a 1% holding in the stocks listed above. I would like to sell one and increase the holdings of the other 2 stocks. Which one would you sell? No tax implications and want to keep which ever you think has the best outlook going forward.
Thanks

Q: Good Day,

With the end of the year approaching and the US poking the tarriff bear again (pun... intended?), do you see more selling/profit taking coming in the end of the year?

It seems many names have either been hit by these latest developments, have unsubstantiated short report attacks, or have no news declines. What are some of your favourite names right now that have solid outlooks/execution and some real potential for strong recovery? Say 10 names, mix of Canada and US with attractive entry prices?

Secondly, what would be your main buy targets likely to see tax loss selling? What would be an attractive entry price for them?

No need for megacap names, I'm well represented there.

Thanks!

James

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at adding some funds to CAN stocks I already own, are you able to rank these in order from 1 to 14 based on a 3-4 year hold, I'm not worried about company size or industry. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i

HPS seems to be in the doldrums and not sure they will recover. I'm thinking of selling full position in HPS and take half position in each of PNG and ZDC. (Both of which I don't currently own)

I have all of them as growth stocks so what's your opinion on this trade idea?

Thanks
Ken

Q: Some of my favourite smaller cap stocks. Would appreciate a ranking on 2 fronts. First, please rank from 1 to 12 for the upside potential for the stock price over the next 5 years. Second, please rank from 1 to 12 the downside risk for the stock price over the same time frame. Understood that all are higher than average risk. ATZ, BRM, CPH, GRID, HPS.A, KSI, MDA, PNG, PRL, TGH, VHI, ZDC

Q: Good Afternoon
Historically Hammond has been a good performer but not so much in the past 12 months. I know you continued to like the name but can you explain the stock based compensation and who gets what? There is a pattern developing where this stock gets clipped because of SBC. Will this be a negative going forward or will it level out eventually and not have such an impact on the Share Price.
Thank you for your great service as always
Marty

Q: Hammond getting whacked again after earnings. Is it because of the lower backlog, share based comp, lower gross margins? All of the above? What are your thoughts going forward? Its had a nice run since the April lows. Would you add here or wait? Have a 2.15% position in the name after the drop today. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, this stock always trades the same, slow escalator up, earning release: "Net earnings of $13.4 million in the quarter, significantly impacted by share-based compensation.", and then it takes the elevator down.

Please provide review of results and whether it is still holdable or are there better options.

Thx
